You ever think about how unified humanity is by just everyday experiences? Tudor peasants had hangnails, nobles in the Qin dynasty had favorite foods, workers in the 1700s liked seeing flowers growing in pavement cracks, a cook in medieval Iran teared up cutting onions, a mom in 1300 told her son not to get grass stains on his clothes, some girl in the past loved staying up late to see the sun rise.

there are scriptures all over the world painstakingly crafted hundreds of years ago with paw prints and spelling mistakes or drawings covering up mistakes. a bunch of teenage girls 2000 years ago gathered to walk around their hometown, getting fast food and laughing with their friends. two friends shared blankets before people lived in houses. a mother ran a fine comb through her child’s hair and told it to stop squirming sometime in the 1000s. there are covered up sewing mistakes in couture dresses from the 1800s, some poor roman burnt their food so well past recognition that they just buried the entire pot. there are broken dishes hidden in gardens of people no one even remembers anymore

children eleven thousand years ago enjoyed jumping around in puddles made from the footprints of a giant sloth. children loved muddy puddles so long ago there were still megafauna alive

There’s a record of an emperor of Japan in the 9th century talking about his cat - how pretty it is, and how it stalks birds and curls up in a circle and meows mournfully for company and escaped its collar. All completely normal ordinary cat things. And then it ends with him saying “it is superior to all other cats”. I am delighted to be united across 1200 years with this fellow cat owner with exactly the same feelings about his cat that I have about mine.

Ep 12 of Worlds Beyond Number is amazing in so many ways but a part that I haven’t seen appreciated much is that Naram is just… a good guy?? All the other great spirits we’ve met are A Lot and Naram is like yeah sure I’m 50 ft tall and made of ocean but I’m not gonna destroy this city, I’m not gonna eat your son, and I hope you like the salmon

[milk-chocolateer]

Update as of Episode 25: When Orima is not utterly consumed with grief and rage, she too is Extremely Cool and I now understand why she and Naram are partners. That being said, she is still Extremely Scary, but she’s the earth, so she can be both! Good for her!

oh uh. scuse me. just a lil snail crossing your dash

[alex51324]

I love how certain I am that I’m not the only person who stopped scrolling to let the snail finish crossing the dash.  

In fact, I would bet small sums of money that the majority of Tumblr folk do.    

[teatops]

Rb for the lil hops it does at the end before it finishes crossing 🥺💓

“Hope” is the thing with feathers - That perches in the soul - And sings the tune without the words - And never stops - at all - And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard - And sore must be the storm - That could abash the little Bird That kept so many warm - I’ve heard it in the chillest land - And on the strangest Sea - Yet - never - in Extremity, It asked a crumb - of me.

-Emily Dickinson

Happy Pride :) 

EDIT!

Now available as prints! Thank you to everyone who’s interested!

This makes me feels so many things and it’s hard to describe.

It’s like..

Hope. The little thing with feathers, also has claws and teeth.

It’s not a meek little bird. It would fight to stay alive.

But also… Maybe there is ancient and fierce hope that has evolved to not need to be as fierce.

And then I think of all the things that have feathers and imagine them as different kinds of hope.

Silly fat hope that walks funny but could kill a man. Tiny fluttery hopes that chirp in the bushes, are often ignored but are important parts of the ecosystem. Hopes that eat dead things and give new life a chance to grow. Hope with no wings that has to survive on the ground.

I don’t know.

Point is. This is very good art expanding immensely the meaning of the poem it is based on

[glitterdustcyclops]

an assorted list of delightful bits from the episode

the absolute sibling energy of mike, ify, & siobhan the entire time, from siobhan going "STOP IT I'M GONNA GET IN TROUBLE" when "grant" gets spaghetti all over the podiums to her being so fucking annoyed that mike and ify got points for buzzing in when they didn't know the answer while ify twerks at her, mike very kindly getting handing a duck to her and ify being like "sike all these duck points are MINE"

of course, zac oyama playing grant as the Huge Klutz Idiot™️

bdg and his sassy little ponytail as the podium inspector

SUNGWON as fixitman78 (and everyone in the game changer audience *immediately* joining the #fixitmanfanfam)

the return of kaylin mahoney as the PA of all time

josh ruben doing the absolute most as the creepy clown roscoe + ify trying to out-creep him every time he went to pop a balloon

the perfect taskmaster-esque cutaway to the shelf full of ducks when sam asks them to give him a duck the second time (+ mike chiming in with "mallard" twice)

"just take the shelf off." "well it's not really--" *slides the shelf off the brackets* "oh."

siobhan bribing everyone throughout the episode

the fucking ladder

mike saying the lines along with everyone else on the fourth run

ify's "i got a box strategy" and then "do you have a box? i only deal in boxes."

"by the end of this i will know how to play the piano"

"you're the tobacco industry?"

ash, and nico, and kaylin, and then everybody doing the wenis

the wenis is a dance

everybody is a genius

who knows it in advance

"WE'RE CHANGING THE GAME!!!!"

[milk-chocolateer]

what the fuck happened on Game Changer… truly what was that? And why can’t I get any #FixItManFanFam merch?? Or get the wenis song out of my head???

Day 25 Favorite Monster Girl. Nagas. Who knew they’d be so fun to draw? Especially with their colors. Also I really like doing the henna designs.

[elsajeni]

This is so cute and the pose is so deeply relatable that I immediately said, out loud, “They’re NOT FOR YOU, they’re for the PTA meeting!” and my husband nodded sagely and said “That stands for People That are Anacondas” and now I can’t stop laughing.

[thesanityclause]

I can’t believe it’s been 10 years and people are still reblogging this and adding nice little comments and things to it c: That makes me really happy.

guy sitting in front of me in class was vandalizing wikipedia and i kept reverting his edits as soon as he made them and he couldn't figure out why it was happening

And Baru cast the first dart at hand, the words that set the coopers and the fishmongers and the bannermen of Lyxaxu and Oathsfire and Unuxekome roaring: “Show them who should rule Aurdwynn, and why.” Vultjag! the poorer parts of the crowd screamed, a raw astonished sound. Vultjag!
